El Museo del Barrio: Live Benefit Auction 2023

El Museo del Barrio is the nation’s leading Latinx and Latin American cultural institution, and for our annual Gala on September 7, 2023, we’re honored to be partnering with so many of the artists that have been part of our work and supported us over the years. This special fundraiser is a celebration of the richness of Caribbean and Latin American arts and cultural history and a testament to the collaborative effort of everyone involved - including museum leadership, the honorees, the Gala Chairs, the artists, supporting galleries and sponsors, and the Host Committee - that make this event possible. For more information about our Gala, please visit our event page here.
